CSHP® Member Benefits

Specializing in Senior Real Estate and Housing

Our Membership Philosophy

The Seniors Real Estate Institute® and our team of coaches, trainers, and administrative staff are committed to providing ongoing world class support, training, coaching and education for our members. Unlike corporate and association related certifications or designations, our support team is just like you -- real estate professionals in the field serving clients! We know that together everyone achieves more and that by working collectively as a team, we can accomplish far more than we ever could individually.

Our membership is made up of amazing people with unique skills, talents, abilities, and ideas which we value beyond measure. Only by working collectively can we insure that the Seniors Real Estate Institute will continue to be the premier organization for senior housing and real estate education -- and members earning the Certified Senior Housing Professional designation stand out above the crowd.

Communicate effectively with their personal, professional, and public platforms about matters affecting seniors and the senior housing market.

Use their unique zone of genius to grow a rewarding senior housing division.

Assist older adults and families with the physical and emotional aspects of late-in-life moves.

Assemble and leverage an extensive and powerful professional resource team.
